[Zope] Making a Zope Product question...

[Frederic Quin]

Well,
I decided to do like you said.
I put my object type into the meta_types of the container class.

Then I wrote the two lines:
> manage_addMyObjectForm = MyObject.manage_addMyObjectForm
> manage_addMyObject = manage_addMyObjectForm

But Zope can't find this ressource when I try to add an object...
> Cannot locate object at: http://localhost:8080/MyNewObject/manage_addMyObjectForm

When I look at the source of the page, I have:
> <option value="manage_addMyObjectForm">My Object Type</option>
Instead of, usually:
> <option value="manage_addProduct/MyProduct/manage_addMyObjectForm">My Object Type</option>

By the way, MyObject.manage_addMyObjectForm is well defined in the class like this:
manage_addMyObjectForm = DTMLFile( 'dtml/addMyObjectForm', globals() )

So I don't really what's going on...

Frederic
